The Chateau de Ramezay
Nfio
/f/o
Claude de Eamezay, the 11th Governor of Montreal, ap-
pointed 1703, was born in France 1657, came to Canada in
1685, with a number of other young officers, in the suite of
Governor de Denonville. He was then a lieutenant in de
Troye's company of Marine troops, which later took part
in the expedition to Hudson's Bay. His promotion was rapid,
being: captain in 1687, later colonel, then commandant of
troops and finally Governor.
In 1687 he took part in the expedition against the Iro-
quois and in 1690, when Phipps appeared before Quebec, he
brought over 800 men from Montreal for the defence of the
former town.
History tells of the spirited defence made by Frontenae
and his gallant officers, the latter, no doubt, being encouraged
by the bright smiles of some of Quebec's fair daughters who,
it seems, lost no time in rewarding their brave defenders with
their heart and hand. Scarcely had the last of Phipps' fleet
disappeared around Point Levi, than de Ramezay led to the
altar Melle Marie-Charlotte Denys, a daughter of Denys de la
Eonde, one of the oldest and wealthiest families of Canada.
His companion in arms, de Vaudreuil, at the same time mar-
ried Louise, daughter of Pierre de Joybert de Soulanges.
Could they have seen into the future their happiness would
have been clouded by sorrow, for it was destined that a son of
de Ramezay should be the one to open the gates of Quebec to
the English in 1759, and a son of de Vaudreuil should do like-
wise, at Montreal, the following year.
De Ramezay was one of the most prominent men of his
time, occupying an official position in Canada for a term
exceeding forty years. He was Seigneur de la Gesse, de Mon-
tigny, et Boisfleurent in France, and in Canada was Seigneur
de Monnoir and de Ramezay, Knight of the Military Order of
St. Louis, Governor of Montreal, and Commandant of all the
militia in the country, and was administrator of the Governor-
Generalship during the two years ' absence of de Vaudreuil in
France
The Chateau was built in 1705. The neighborhood was
then the fashionable part of the town, and was occupied by
366240
the Baron de Longueuil, the Contrecoeurs, d'Eschambaults,
d 'Aillebousts and Madame de Portneiif, the widow of Baron
Becancourt. Situated on a hill, and opposite to the magnifi-
cent garden of the Jesuits, this plain unembellished house had
an open view to the river front.
Under de Eamezay's regime, 1703 to 1724, this venerable
edifice was the hall of entertainment of the illustrious of the
country. The many expeditions to the distant fur fields, the
voyages of discovery of new land*;, the councils of war, the
military expeditions, the conferences with the Indians, the
annual fairs and fur trading market, attracted to the shores of
Montreal, not only the Governor General, the Intendant, and
their suites, but a considerable number of the most important
people of the country, including all classes of society. To one
and all the portals of this hospitable mansion were ever open.
To the lowly Indian and his squaw, and to the exalted noble-
man and his consort, the noble and beneficent Ramezay and
his family showed equal attention. Fearless to the Indian or
enemy, his bravery and charity were equally exemplified in
the personal care and attention he and his family gave to the
suffering citizens of Montreal during the pest which devastat-
ed the town in 1721.
De Ramezay died in 1724, and his family sold the Chateau
to the Compagnie des Indes in 1745. The latter retained pos-
session until the cession, in 1763, when it was bought by Wm.
Grant, who, in turn, disposed of it to the English Government
for the sum of two thousand guineas. It thus became again
the residence of the Governors, and remained such up to 1849.
In 1775-6, the Chateau was the Headquarters for the Con-
tinental Army under Montgomery, and in the spring of 1776,
there came Benjamin Franklin, Carroll of Carrollton, and
Samuel Chase, envoys sent by Congress to influence the
French Canadians to join the colonies in the revolt against
British rule. Then came Benedict Arnold, who occupied the
Chateau for several weeks.
Lord Metcalfe was the last resident governor, but for some
years after his establishment in a new government house the
Chateau was used for departmental offices. When the govern-
ment was withdrawn from Montreal, the Chateau served sev-
eral purposes. For some years the courts were held here, and
later the Normal School.
In 1894 the Chateau was sold by the Provincial Govern-
ment and purchased by the Corporation of the City of Mont-
real, and in 1895 the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society
obtained the building for the purpose of founding an His-
torical Portrait Gallery and Museum.
The Numismatic and Antiquarian
Society of Montreal
In the month of December, 1862, several gentlemen of
^lontreal, desirous of cultivating the study of Numismatics,
some of whom had been meeting informally for a couple of
years at the house of Mr. James Ferrier, judging the forma-
tion of a properly organized association as the most efficacious
means of attaining that end, formed ' ' The Numismatic Society
of Montreal. ' ' The seal of this society was the obverse of the
Canadian bronze cent, with an outer circle inscribed ' ' Societe
Numismatique de Montreal. Fondee 1862."
In January, 1866, the name of the society was changed to
that of the "Numismatic and Antiquarian Society of Mont-
real, ' ' and a new seal was adopted, viz. : a round shield quar-
tered by a tomahawk, and calumet, bearing an antique lamp,
an Athenian coin with the head of Minerva, a Canadian cent
vfith head of Victoria, and a Beaver ; the shield encircled with
a garter bearing the words : '' Numismaticae et Archeologicae
Marianopolitanae Societatis Sigillum."
In 1870 the Society was incorporated by Act of Legis-
lature of Quebec. The charter members were Stanley Clark
Bagg, James Ferrier, Thomas D. King, William Blackburn,
Daniel Rose, Henry Mott, Dr. T. Sterry Hunt, A. J. Boucher,
Solomon David, John Lawrence, Robert W. McLachlan,
Gerald E. Hart, Alfred Sandham, J. L. Bronsdon, L. A.
Huguet Latour, William Kingsford, R. J. Wickstead, and
Henry Leggatt.
In July, 1872, the Society began the publication of ' ' The
Canadian Antiquarian and Numismatic Journal," but owing
to uncontrollable circumstances the publication was suspended
from time to time. Up to the present time three series, mak-
ing a total of twenty volumes, have been published. It was
this Society, acting upon the projects of individual members
of it, that first suggested the project of celebrating the
250th anniversary of the founding of Montreal, and proposed
three things in order to shed more lustre on so noteworthy an
event. First, the erecting of a monument to the memory of
Chomedy de Maisonneuve, the founder of our city; second,
the saving of the Chateau de Ramezay from the destruction
with which it was threatened; third, an historical exhibition
by which the public might be enlightened regarding the rare
and precious things still to be found amongst us and which
the Society is endeavoring to prevent being lost to the country
for ever.
6
The Society succeeded in bringing all three of these
projects to a successful issue, and the result of its labors in the
Chateau may be read in the pages of this catalogue.
The President of the Society — His Honor Louis Wilfrid
Sicotte, is descended from 6ne of the oldest families in the
Province of Quebec, his ancestors being amongst the founders
of the City of Montreal
Was born at Boucherville, Que., Dec. 10th, 1838. Edu-
cated at the College of St. Hyacinthe, and was called to the

ducting '^Le Colonisateur " newspaper. He was appointed
clerk of the Crown and of the Peace, 1882, and Judge of Ses-
sions of the Peace, 1897. For many years a member of the
Numismatic and Antiquarian Society, in which he has always
taken great interest, and has contributed largely to the in-
crease of its collection.
At the death of the lamented Hon. Judge Baby, he was
unanimously appointed President.

battle of Quebec was fought, and therefore, when
Montcalm fell, could not take command. At the

Rivers, and Montreal. He was indefatigable in spread-
ing civilization, repelling the attacks of the Indians,
thus saving the lives of the early French settlers, and
also in exploring the country and its valuable resources.
He prosecuted his enterprises with constancy, and no
dangers could shake his firmness. He was a faithful
historian, a voyager who observed everything with at-
tention, skilful in geometry and an experienced sea-
man. He well merited the title of the Father of New
France.

selves surrounded by a force far superior in numbers,
the invaders became paralyzed with fear, and fled in
disorder from an enemy whom they could not see, and
